Quotas are the groups that profiles fall into.  Use Jamroom's quota system to give your members profiles different feature options. Examples below.

On this demo site we have these quotas setup. You can have as many quotas as you need.  They're just another way that allows you to make Jamroom into the site that you require.

We have a quota for real artists.  These are real bands that exist and have said its ok to showcase them in our demo system.

Some of the profiles from the "Real Artists Quota" are listed below.

We have a quota for demo artists.  These are fake bands setup with dummy content that is used to show off the capabilities of jamroom in our demo system.

Some of the profiles from the "Demo Artists Quota" are listed below.

We have a quota for community stuff.  There is only one profile in this quota and its the only quota that is allowed to use the Forum module.  We wanted to have one forum for the whole site, not may different forums.

A list of all the profiles in the "Community Quota" are listed below.

We have a quota for bloggers stuff.  The purpose of this quota is to give access and preferential treatment to the bloggers in our community.  Other quotas, like the "Real Artists Quota" can also use the blog module, but we also have this "Bloggers Quota" available for members who just want to blog.

A list of all the profiles in the "Bloggers Quota" are listed below.

We have a quota for product sellers.  Some members may want to sell stuff, you can either give them access to the product modules on a single quota, or make another quota. Here we have the "Product Sellers Quota".

A list of all the profiles in the "Product Sellers Quota" are listed below.
